- From childhood's hour I have not been
- As others were--I have not seen
- As others saw--I could not bring
- My passions from a common spring--
- From the same source I have not taken
- My sorrow--I could not awaken
- My heart to joy at the same tone--
- And all I loved--_I_ loved alone--
- _Thou_--in my childhood--in the dawn
- Of a most stormy life--was drawn
- From every depth of good and ill
- The mystery which binds me still--
- From the torrent, or the fountain--
- From the red cliff of the mountain--
- From the sun that round me roll'd
- In its autumn tint of gold--
- From the lightning in the sky
- As it passed me flying by--
- From the thunder and the storm--
- And the cloud that took the form
- (When the rest of Heaven was blue)
- Of a demon in my view.
